Below is a list of some the items that I've acquired over the last few months. I was blessed to receive some great gifts for my b-day at the end of May and also found some great sales and deals on all of these items. As always, the prices listed below are the original ticket prices. I purchased all of the items at a discount using the coupons or codes that I post on this blog!Footwear

Above: Gucci GG cage ballet flat for $495 on www.gucci.com; RED Valentino bow espadrilles for $250 on www.piperlime.com; Sam Edelman "Gideon" sandal for $119.95 on www.nordstrom.com (I actually bought these in an all neutral color-scheme at a boutique in Hawaii) ; Steve Madden "Jenny" wedge for $80 on www.piperlime.com.

And, finally, since I worked so very hard last year, I decided to treat myself on my birthday to my holy grail of purses! I've always wanted a quilted black Chanel tote bag that is large enough to bring to work and store a notepad if need be, so I decided on the bag pictured above, which is called the caviar timeless tote. I purchased the bag from the Chanel boutique in the Saks at Polaris mall (price undisclosed because it is embarrassing!). But I couldn't be happier with my purchase!!!

About Me

I am writing from the fashion wasteland known as Columbus, Ohio, devoid of even the most basic of needs like a Neiman Marcus and a Bloomingdales, and where the ensemble of choice for the masses typically involves an Ohio State University sweatshirt. I write to provide fellow Columbusites and my girlfriends all over the country with a listing of fashion deals, news, advice, and events. This blog is for the money conscious shopper who loves to look great but must adhere to a budget. While I love the quality and innovation of designer items, nearly all of my designer items have been purchased at a discount. My goal is to make designer fashion accessible to and affordable for the everyday woman. Each week I will provide a list of deals (updated DAILY so be sure to check back), as well as any and all sales I run across locally and online. I will also provide you glimpses into my wardrobe and my own style muses, who help to guide me in my fashion choices. Please feel free to leave me comments!
